Estonia ESTONIA 2020 - Uku Suviste - What Love Is

[escYOUnited]

 

[lilka]

I don't like "Randajad" almost at all...I have it really low of my 2009 list..

Wooow, that's controversial... On my personal list of Estonian entries "Randajad" is 2nd, very close after "Goodbye to yesterday" (which I guess is my forever-best entry)

 

[Citelis]

My favorite Estonian entry ever is ''Keelatud maa''. Along with ''Ranjadad'' and ''La forza are my top3 stonian entries.

Synne got the pimp slot. It's happening kids. We're getting what we want, deserve, need and must have for the world to not end on the 29th of February, 2020.

 

[NikolaiMoller]

Synne and Mariliis last spots!!!!

 

[tuorem]

Yaaas! Synne is coming ya'll guys. Glue your wigs because it's windy once you reach the top of the lighthouse.

Also, happy to see Mariliis close the second semi despite being mad underrated given her Youtube views.

I feel the semis will be enjoyable to watch, for the running order seems to be well-made imo.

 

[ESC94]

Can´t wait for Eest Laul!! Too bad it´s still about a month to go.

I need her in the final she is far better than any other generic pop song..Sad I have realized it only a few days ago

Can´t wait for Eest Laul!! Too bad it´s still about a month to go.

Definitely the NF I'm most excited about

 

[Citelis]

I'm more excited for Latvia's than this one!

Pimp spot means nothing in eesti laul, but sure let's believe that it does. Synne

 

[Alaska49]

oh dear, estonia. what happened to you? the downfall of eesti laul has been foreseen for years, but i believed in it even last year. this year the cracked walls finally crumbled. this is one of weakest NF fields in recent memory.

jaagup is the obvious winner and his literal arcade clone better win because the other 23 songs don't have a lick of a chance of qualifying in eurovision. estonia, you in danger, girl.

as for how i actually feel, majakad is the only track i truly love, but german & violina, ziggy wild and little mess are good too. renate and shira are adequate. as for big names, laura, rasmus and traffic are fine but should be better, inger is boring, stefan is comatose, uku is embarrassing, inga was the biggest disappointment of my entire life, and uudo's song is demonic and he looks like wonder bread. so that's where estonia is right now.

 

[laululind]

I think Estonian music in general is in a bland samey slump right now. Very beige all around.
That said, I'd say about 3-4 songs have a decent shot at qualifying. Probably not doing much beyond that, like last year. If Uku wins (and I suspect he might, it's the kind of cheese our televoters eat up and ask for seconds), he'll possibly be another Victor. Disliked by fans, yet makes the final and ends up somewhere on the right side at the end of the day. The likes of Stefan or Jaagup could get jury support, if nothing else. I wonder how being so similar to last winner would hurt Jaagup's chances. If Tanja got dragged for being too much like Loreen (several years later), what would people say about him. Better brace for the avalanche of copycat accusations, should he actually win. Also wonder how many more potential Arcade clones will be on their way.

In any case, still looking forward to the shows. There are at least a few songs I'm rooting for, and things aren't completely hopeless on the qualification front. That said, I'd probably watch even if all the songs were hopeless garbage, out of pure curiosity. Still OUR garbage and all that. The whole show/staging/competition part is still interesting to me, even if the songs aren't all that. Same with Eurovision in general, really.

 

[Mimmon]

Looks like he had fun shooting it...

 

[Mrm]

This is..

I hope you've got your 104967 Estonian sim cards at the ready.

I have indeed, although I'm splitting my budget between both Estonia and Latvia.

So how does it work? Are you planning to hire a boat and travel from London to Tallinn by sea while collecting each Synne Valtri superfan on your way?

 

[DaFlo]

Damn these songs are bad b

Merilin Mälk - Miljon sammu is actually pretty nice, I can officially support that one

 

[opinionsigotem]

At least if one travels by boat they have the majakad to guide them to shore

 

[Mrm]

I think that there is no chance for any single official video (included all for ESC entries) to be better than official video for "Majakad" in my book..it's simply way too AMAZING!
